The Fan Fiction Bug

Earlier this year my friend Anna truly introduced me to fan fiction. I have been thoroughly intrigued and entertained by the good work I have found as a result, and saddened at the notion of the original writers weeping and turning in their graves over the bad ones (and there have been some).

I have taken, more often in the last months or so, to writing my own attempts at fan fiction. So far I have published one, for it is difficult to force this type of writing and my time and inspiration have been mutually exclusive of late. today though, I have currents 5 fics spinning in my head and need to get to writing already. I wish I could publish more of the work I have completed (which is not much), but I wrote out of chronological order and so I would be publishing about characters I have yet to introduce the Sherlock fan fiction community to (since they are a product of my own mind) and that would only confuse people. To give you an idea of the jump, I married these characters off to other respective characters in the series. Cute, but hard to appreciate if you have never met them before. Lucky for me, I do know them so I can enjoy the world I have crated for myself and the little fluff I conjure up.

I know no one is probably reading this, but if you would be interested in my fics eventually, comment and I will either post them here or send you a link to my fic profile so you can see them.

So Came the Summer

I Graduated! On to new adventures that we call life- new destinations, new stories, new people and challenges. I'm excited, and a little scared. The whole thing is pretty bizarre. But hey, we made it. And I'd like to thank the friends, family, and teachers who patiently put up with us all up to that point and supported and inspired us. The people who were there in our best and worst moments with a smile and a calm hand, telling us to let go and jut spread our wings a little bit further to catch the rising winds.

Ladies and gentlemen, we survived. Now let us offer our thanks for the grace and good angles that brought us here.

Mazel Tov!!!
